How do you use regapi.dll?

[duckling78]

I'm creating a registry checkpoint and comparing function at: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...t=0#entry612836

I am currently parsing the results of the "reg.exe" command ("reg compare ....."). This isn't as precise as I'd like it, but it is really fast at what it does.

My real question is, how do I look at what functionality the "regapi.dll" library has and how would I go about implementing this into AutoIt3? I've used people's examples of using "DllCall" but all those parameters and return values confuse the heck out of me.

I tried editing the custom component set from the Object Browser in Microsoft Visual C# 2008 and adding "regapi.dll", but it gives me the following error:

The following components could not be browsed:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\regapi.dll
